6TB SCSI RAID vs. Centos
by Milt Mallory 25 Jul '08

25 Jul '08

I have an Infortrend RAID box I'd like to see as one big 6TB partition, but I only can get 2.2TB partitions to work. I was trying to do this with an Adaptec controller but apparently they are only (any of them) 48 bits wide. Does anybody have a working system for SCSI/Centos over 2.2TB?

Securing serial ports - fax modems
by James B. Byrne 25 Jul '08

25 Jul '08

I have already deployed a fax server and am about to deploy a backup system for this host at our off-site facility. It struck me that I have given no thought to securing the serial port to unauthorized access. The modem is a Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA which supports data as well as fax. So this poses the same type of risk, if not to the same degree, as an ssh or telnet port but without the availability of a firewall to throttle repeated unsuccessful connection attempts. Are there any recommendations on what should be done in this circumstance or am I fretting unduly? Regards, -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

You didn't give me some packages, so now I'm giving you some! R, TexLive, LyX, Gnumeric, etc.
by Paul Johnson 25 Jul '08

25 Jul '08

I want up-to-dateish versions of TexLive, R, gnumeric, emacs, but on a more-or-less stable base of Centos-5.2. I asked for packages in this, but got no answers. So now I've built them and will let you try them if you want. I used the source packages from Fedora 8 and 9. I wanted TexLive because many of us have jumped ship to Ubuntu Linux 8.04 and it does offer TexLive, and the compatability across systems became an issue. With Centos5.2 shipping the years-out-of-date tetex, we were seeing things compile differently across systems. Making TexLive compile and install required a re-build with a newer version of poppler, but not with the absolutely newest version of poppler. Replacing poppler required a rebuild of evince. After emerging from dependency hell, it all seems OK. I uploaded the src.rpm files for the packages that I actually had to re-configure, even in the slightest. Otherwise, everything is in Fedora 8 or Fedora 9. We use LyX to edit LaTeX, so I had to have a newer version, along with pybliographic (which required recode). We also use Emacs and auctex to edit LaTeX, so those had to be built as well. All of these packages were built on a stock Centos 5.2 system, with all components as usual EXCEPT for the ones I provide below or the packages that can be downloaded from EPEL. As far as I can tell, everything works as well as it does on Fedora, no better. Go here in your web browser to look it over. http://pj.freefaculty.org/Centos/ My PGP key is in the top directory http://pj.freefaculty.org/Centos/PaulJohnson-BinaryPackageSigningKey And under i386 you should see I've created an RPM repository. I don't have any i686 machines for which I'm doing this work, sorry. To use yum, I think you should specify the repository as [kups] name=Extra Packages for Centos Linux 5 - $basearch baseurl=http://pj.freefaculty.org/Centos/$basearch enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 Here is a package list (look under i386/kups/packages).
